Meng Chao's mind raced as he thought about Lu Fanghui's suggestion.
Of course, he was not naive enough to think that the president of Sky Pillar Minerals would be interested in Superstar or Spirit Creation Creatures' technology.
Even if Sky Pillar Corporation really lacked the relevant technology, they could choose a partner of a larger scale and had more advanced technology.
So, did he value his relationship with Lu Siya and think that there was a need for him to cultivate him as one of them?
Speaking of which, Meng Chao had been troubled by Spirit Creation Creatures lately.
It had been some time since the merger between Superstar and Spirit Creation Creatures was completed.
This was the standard merger of a snake trying to swallow an elephant.
Before this, Superstar did not have a lot of connections, technology, or experience in the biochemical modification field.
And after Spirit Creation Creatures suffered a major blow to its foundation, it had to face strict investigations from related departments. Many of its businesses, including Subway No.20, had to stop.
Even though they had passed the investigations, it would not be easy for them to recover their businesses.
Even if they used the abnormal beast research department as a middleman and introduced some businesses to them, they still had a long way to go before they could expand their businesses.
To put it bluntly, Superstar had eaten too much during the merger and was suffering from indigestion.
Meng Chao did not know how to manage a business, and his father's experience and abilities were not enough for him to handle such a high-level business operation.
Qin Hu and the former president of Spirit Creation Creatures, Xie Xiaolei, were more or less qualified.
But even the cleverest housewife could not cook without rice. Without suitable projects, they could not do anything.
If they could grasp Lu Fanghui's suggestion, Superstar would definitely be able to reach a higher level.
"Professor Gao Ye is a genius."
Lu Fanghui's subsequent words showed that he was not just saying it casually. "His skill in creating the Ultimate Sandworm alone is unparalleled among all the sandworm specialists in Dragon City. And consciousness transfer is a genius creation that marks the start of a new era. If it can be perfectly implemented, it will change the face of our entire civilization. It will also change the relationship between superhumans and normal people.
"I might be a superhuman from the Lu family, but I admire some of his ideals. If normal people have great power, they might not be able to threaten the interests of superhumans. Instead, they can achieve balance and make our civilization even more stable and beautiful.
"It's a pity that a genius like Professor Gao Ye was still bewitched by abnormal beasts. Just like Lin Chuan, he narrowed his path.
"But no matter how many mistakes Gao Ye and Lin Chuan committed, it has nothing to do with their ideals and technology. Professor Gao Ye used consciousness transferring technology to turn himself into the Ultimate Sandworm and committed all sorts of crimes, but that doesn't mean that consciousness transferring technology and biochemical modification technology are evil.
"At the end of the day, technology is not wrong, and neither is power. There are plenty of black sheep among superhumans who absorb too much spirit energy, which leads to deformities in their brains. Their minds are twisted, and they turn into heinous lost people. Are we supposed to stop cultivating just because of the existence of lost people? Isn't that the same as giving up eating for fear of choking? "
The truth behind Lin Chuan and Gao Ye's case was originally a top secret.
However, with Lv Fanghui's status, it was not difficult for him to understand the inside story.
"Meng Chao, I know that most of Professor Gao Ye's technology is in Superstar's hands along with Spirit Creation Creatures."
Lv Fanghui continued. "Right now, Dragon City is developing the new area in the north. Sky Pillar Minerals has more than ten crystal mining projects in Shattered Starlake, Graveyard Forest, and Raging Waves. We're in urgent need of a large number of Giant Sandworms to carry out drilling and harvesting operations.
"If you're interested, there are plenty of chances for us to work together in this area. If we work well together, we can build a biochemical lab with a higher standard than the one in Spirit Creation Creatures and research consciousness transferring technology."
This suggestion made Meng Chao's heart race.
He would let Qin Hu, Xie Xiaolei, and the others discuss the details.
Meng Chao sincerely thanked Lv Fanghui for taking care of him over the past few days.
"You're welcome. I should be the one thanking you."
Lv Fanghui smiled. "No, it's not just about Lin Chuan. It's not just about you saving Siya a few times and achieving great achievements with her. There's also Zhou Tianshui."
"Zhou Tianshui?"
Meng Chao was a little stunned.
He remembered the pitiful person who was swallowed by the Demonic Abyss Eye after he mutated.
What was his relationship with Lv Fanghui?
"That's right, Zhou Tianshui."
Lv Fanghui sighed and said in resignation, "Zhou Tianshui is the boss of a secondhand metal recycling company, but his wife's younger brother is an engineer and a partner of Kun-peng Dynamics. Zhou Tianshui has also secretly invested in Kun-peng Dynamics through his wife. They have a deep relationship of interest, and Kun-peng Dynamics has just received an investment from Sky Pillar Corporation. Zhou Tianshui's wealth will increase by ten times or even a hundred times as Kun-peng Dynamics soars."
Meng Chao was confused. "Kun-peng Dynamics is …"
"Oh, Kun-peng Dynamics is a high-tech company that specializes in developing new crystal engines. It's also the manufacturer of Thunderbolt Airships. It provides crystal engines for the new armored airship project," Lv Fanghui explained.
"You should have heard some rumors. The Red Dragon Army and related departments are planning a plan to replace advanced armored airships. They want to develop a super armored airship that is faster, has a longer range, and can carry more ammunition. They want to upgrade all the armored airships in the city.
"The profits from this plan are astronomical, but the budget is astronomical as well.
"If the plan is fully implemented, I'm afraid that there won't be enough resources and budget to invest in many defensive projects, including the research and development of controllable transmigration technology and the comprehensive upgrade of community defense.
"On the other hand, if the Home Party grows in power, the projects such as the research and development of controllable transmigration technology and the comprehensive upgrade of community defense will consume a lot of the budget and investment. The projects that are more aggressive, such as the project to upgrade the advanced armored airships, might be delayed, and there might even be unexpected changes in the project."
Meng Chao's mind raced, and he instantly understood what was going on.
"This means that Zhou Tianshui didn't just degrade himself because of his passionate ideals, but because he was motivated by practical benefits. He turned into the abnormal beasts' puppet and tried to destroy the members of Project 101 so that he could deal a heavy blow to the Home Party?"
"Kun-peng Dynamics provides crystal engines for the new armored airships. Once it receives the stimulation of good news, it will definitely rise to power. And Zhou Tianshui has a lot of shares in Kun-peng Dynamics, so it's not a dream for him to increase his wealth by one hundred times!
"Kun-peng Dynamics provides crystal engines for the new armored airships. Once it receives such good news, it will definitely rise to power. And Zhou Tianshui secretly holds a lot of shares in Kun-peng Dynamics, so it won't be a dream for his wealth to increase by one hundred times!
"I was wondering how the 'mastermind' of the apocalyptic beasts could have bewitched a human being to such an extent. It turns out that astronomical interests are the fulcrum to move a soul blinded by greed. Now it makes sense!"
"That's right. It's not just Zhou Tianshui. Many other people did it," Lu Siya added.
"Over the past few days, the abnormal beast research department hasn't been idle. Even though the zombies, monsters, and undead have all been destroyed, we haven't captured all the people who helped them sneak into Dragon City!
"Gao Ye and Zhou Tianshui's help alone wouldn't have been enough to carry out such a large-scale and precise attack.
"The department sent out elites to track down the culprits. They've already captured more than one hundred people involved in the case, and I reckon that more big fish will surface soon. This is a major earthquake in the superhuman circle in Dragon City!"
Meng Chao was shocked and said in disbelief, "No way. More than one hundred superhumans like Zhou Tianshui were bewitched by the mastermind?"
"That's not it," Lu Siya said.
Lu Siya said. "There are only a handful of black sheep like Zhou Tianshui who will work for the monster civilization wholeheartedly. Most of them aren't bewitched by the mastermind of the abnormal beasts, but by people like Zhou Tianshui. While they don't know what's going on, they become accomplices of the monster civilization."
Meng Chao thought about it and shook his head. "I don't understand. What do you mean by 'without knowing it'?"
"It's simple. These people don't want to see monsters wreaking havoc in Dragon City, but they don't want to see the Home Party rise to power either. In fact, they're happy to see the Home Party suffer a heavy blow," Lu Siya said.
"Most of these people are the same as Zhou Tianshui. They have a deep relationship with all sorts of offensive projects, which is why they've become loyal members of the Colonization Party. If the transmigration experts are all wiped out and Project 101 fails, their projects will be able to get more budget and resources.
"300% profit can make humans even crazier than monsters. These people have enough motivation to attack Project 101 and the Home Party.
"Abnormal beast puppets like Zhou Tianshui understand their thoughts, so they secretly gathered a group of loyal Colonization Party members and used the name of the nine great cultivation families to announce that we're the ones supporting them from behind the scenes. They wanted them to provide all sorts of conveniences to attack the Home Party, and many people were fooled."
Meng Chao was a little stunned. "They used your name …"
'That's right. The nine great cultivation families are the biggest Colonization Party in Dragon City.'
Besides, while he was investigating Blue Home, he noticed that the Home Party were not really idealists who were passionate about returning to Earth. Instead, it would be more accurate to say that they were the people who gathered together under the banner of transmigrating back to Earth. They were the opposers who targeted the nine great cultivation families.
From a conspiracy theory perspective, aside from monsters, who else had the highest possibility of plotting an attack against the Home Party and the transmigration experts?
It seemed like the nine great cultivation families were the only ones.
This meant that if Meng Chao and Lu Siya had not worked together to stop the Demonic Abyss Eye's scheme …
If the transmigration experts and the leaders of the Home Party had really died.
There was a high possibility that the enraged Home Party would blame the nine great cultivation families for this.
